The confidence that my little boy has gained is thanks to the great staff here. They noticed his speech was delayed and helped not only him, but us in how to support and promote it slowly.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Amazing staff, always attentive, nothing is too much trouble. They are extremely professional, I feel very happy and at ease going to work knowing my daughter is in safe hands and happy being there.
There are lots of activities for the children to take part in. The selection of food is fantastic, my
daughter enjoys all the meals and snacks provided. The nursery is always immaculate and well organised.

I love how Kids Planet nurseries look after their staff, this makes a huge difference to them having security and prospects.
The staff have always been so caring and compassionate. My children have always been happy here and since Kids Planet took over the facilities have improved with fantastic investment
in the nursery, staff and children.

A home from home for our son. Always such a warm welcome. I couldn't recommend Kids Planet enough. The staff always go above and beyond to ensure everything is just right. Ant queries always dealt with promptly and efficiently. Such a safe, warm, happy environment for our son to grow and learn.
Thank
you, Ducklings, you really are the best.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our sons have attended Ducklings collectively for over 6 years and we have always been delighted with the nursery. Since the takeover of Kids Planet, we have seen significant improvements that we did not anticipate. Little things like the smart uniforms for the staff and the offering of coffee to our
mornings have been lovely additions, however, the changes to the nursery decor and the new PE teacher have been quite significant to our youngest son's learning and contentment. I would recommend this nursery to anybody who was looking.

My little boy joined the nursery in January 2023. The difference in his development is amazing. Thanks to the staff in the baby room. I feel very comfortable when in the setting and there is always an opportunity to speak with management if needed.

My son is the second child I've had at Ducklings - since taken over by Kids Planet. Both of my children have been content, well love, safe and have developed wonderfully. I would have no problem recommending this nursery to any of my friends or family.
Since being taken over, however, I have received
three incorrect invoices!

Fantastic, engaging staff. My little boy loves his nursery. Always happy talking about his daily activities and constantly comes home with artwork he has completed throughout the day. They have indoor and outdoor time. He has come along so much since he joined this setting.

Love everything about this nursery. Our daughter has felt at home from her first taster session, and 2 years on she loves going every day. All the staff are genuinely lovely and care for the children.
Great nursery!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.940)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.940) out of 10 for Kids Planet Halewood is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.940 for Kids Planet Halewood is calculated as follows: ( (237 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 251 Ratings = 4.94
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Halewood is based on 21 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 61 number of registered child places is 12.2, which has been reached with 21 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
